wednesday was milk day! (:
(and aloe vera gel day but that's private so i shan't say anything heehee ;) )
anw, mrs v brought cool straws to class because 7-11 gave her a huge bag of free samples!
the kind which adds flavour when you use it to drink your milk(:
well obviously we all couldn't wait to use it so immediately after gp was over yujun and philby went to 7-11 to buy lots of milk!
28 packets to be exact. haha.
and cause wednesday is no break day (which sucks) we distributed the milk during math lecture, and got spotted by the lecturer who asked us why in the world we were distributing HL milk during lecture since we were not supposed to be eating/drinking hahaha.
and cause we bought so much milk the people at 7-11 gave us more free straws!(:(:
one of the reasons i love 3H so much is because you never know what's going to happen!
and it's because of that that i actually look forward to going to school everyday(:
and today was badminton day!
fridays might become 3H's official badminton day (:
what better way to destress after a whole week of mugging?
so 10 of us trooped down to bishan sports hall for an hour of badminton, which is much too short!
but it was fun while it lasted (:
then to j8 for yami yoghurt to cool off(:
looking forward to more badminton days! ha (:
this post is punctuated with lots of (: not because i'm feeling particularly happy, but because these will be all that's left - happy memories to look back on, in the future. in fact, i'm feeling pretty pensieve right now and i've decided to record down as many of these happy memories as possible. it's a little bit late considering there's only about 1 month+ of formal school lessons left, which means less fun with 3H. ): but better late than never right?
i'm not really looking forward to life after jc..
it seemed like just yesterday when we got informed of our classes during orientation and i felt devastated that no one in my og would be in my class,
i remember being in the huge swarm of people moving from the hall to blocks A and B to meet their classes for the first time,
i remember being like everybody else, anxiously calling up old classmates to find out which classes everyone had been allocated to,
i remember scanning the namelists on the boards at the bus bay looking for a familiar person who would also be in '08S03H'
i remember the relief at finding out that pong chara and xinlei would also be in that class with me(:
i remember complaining about the orientation system and wishing that my OGmates could be my classmates after spending time with the class and deciding that i really didn't like it (haha)
i remember actually thinking about changing classes..
yet 19 months down the road, so much has changed!
i can't properly put down into words what happened and how..
but somehow somewhere along the way, during those 19 months, subtle changes were occuring all the while that led us to grow so much closer as a class.
i can't even remember the number of times when other people (who know people in our class) have asked us, "wah another class outing?" everytime they see a huge bunch of us troop down to j8 for our random class lunches and stuff.
and hearing that always gives me a little burst of happiness and pride(:
not to mention that there're people who're actually jealous of our class (:
that's why right now, the thought of jc life ending so soon is pretty depressing ):
i'm not sure how i'll feel about this class pride and love for my class thing many years down the road when i read all these old posts.
maybe by then, i'll have become cynical and jaded and all these emo-ness about leaving the class will just be really amusing and childish.
maybe by then, we'll all have drifted and started leading our own lives, eventually becoming unreachable and uncontactable.
maybe in 10 years time, all these memories won't even matter to me and i'll have forgotten the names of most of my classmates.
But all i know is that right now, in this very moment, the thought that there
i guess it isn't for fun that people keep telling us to treasure our 2 years in JC, because by the time you realise that, everything will all soon be over..
